“Zander Blom is a visual artist concerned with various forms of new media based conceptualism, that represent strategies of self and contextual analysis that play on passive violence, isolation, anxiety, mental health and chaos. He is originally from Pretoria. He studied graphic design. Two random facts employed to both frame and unpack the achingly painful sentiment his works project and the seductively beautiful quality of his draughtsmanship and design. By his own admission this duality generates works that morph personal chaos and angst into glossy, packaged art products marketable through a particular branding strategy.”
